Synergies

  • Like all energy increases, Potato Battery works well with any augment which scales with maximum energy, like Juiced Reserves (20XX).png Juiced Reserves.
  • Enerative Plating (20XX).png Enerative Plating works well with energy increases too, as it provides a bigger starting energy pool at the start of every level.
